The capital letters "I," "V," "X," and "L" are Roman numerals. "I" equals "1," "V" equals "5," "X" equals "10," and "L" equals "50."
Schools still teach Roman numerals, as far a I know. I thought the Jumble was very cute.
In fact, I got the "Roamin' Numerals" answer before I got the "sitcom" clue. I worked backwards from "Roamin' Numerals" to isolate "s," "i," "o," and "m" and finally got the word "sitcom."

Obviously not a “Latin” lover
They were NOT numerals. They were letters.
